The Central Election Commission has announced that the runoff of elections for president and vice-president in Bulgaria is proceeding normally.
At 10 AM the voter turnout stood at 10.59 percent. At the same hour during the first round of the elections it was 10.23 percent. After an update of the voter lists, there are 6,833,080 people in the country entitled to vote in a total of 12,013 polling stations across the country. There are 16,501 police in place to provide security on election day.
After voting PM Boyko Borissov stated that the party he is leader of, the ruling GERB party would “not take any part in governance" if its presidential candidate Tsetska Tsacheva loses the second round of the presidential election. Tsacheva on her part was optimistic of the outcome, calling today’s strong wind in the country “the wind of victory”. Her rival Bulgarian Socialist Party-supported Rumen Radev commented that “the moral victory was there to be seen, but the political victory was yet to come” and called on Bulgarians to vote so the country may have a legitimately elected president.
